SoftFauna C Supplement Utility Library

Supplements many of the C standard libraries, adding additional string, file, and array operations.

Building From Source

Runtime Dependencies:

• None

Build Dependencies:

• meson >= 1.1.0
• c89 (or msvc)
• c++20 (optional: testsuite only)
• pkgconfig (optional)

$ cd sfsupplement
$ meson setup builddir
$ cd builddir
$ ninja
# ninja install

Building the TestSuite

$ git submodule update --init
$ meson setup builddir -Dbuild-tests=true
$ cd builddir
$ ninja
$ ./tests/run_tests

Building without pkgconfig

$ meson setup builddir -Dgen-pkgconfig=false

Building on Windows

On Windows hosts Meson tries to install into your root folder, C:\, which is often not ideal. Use the DESTDIR environment variable to specify where you want the library installed to.

Additionally, see notes for building without pkgconfig.

VS Powershell example:

PS ...> $env:DESTDIR = "C:\Program Files\sfsupplement"
PS ...> ninja install
